NOV 29th

Character development

Early bird discount: $34.99 $19.99

Our last workshop went great. We covered an 8 step approach to creating an engaging story and now we’re moving on to character development.

Some comments from attendees at the last meeting:“Valuable information.”“I’ve already started a treatment.” “Plenty of useful and helpful tips…I’ll definitely be there next time.”

We built the spine, now it’s time to create the heart of your story.

Join us on November 29th for lunch and a workshop. Learn to build your characters. Learn how to utilize flaws. Learn about character arcs and what makes a character lovable.

As an independent author, collaboration is the best weapon in your arsenal.

Join us to hone your skills as a writer and meet other writers in the greater Los Angeles area.
You don’t have to go at it alone. We can grow and learn and succeed together. Bring your laptop, or simply a pen & paper. Just be ready to write.

This meeting will be all about character development:

The meeting will be hosted by TLF founder and independently published author, J.D. Lee. He has had his short stories featured across the internet, has received recognition in multiple writing contests and has self-published two well received fiction books.

You will receive a worksheet to help you build your characters; your heroes and your villains. We’ll discuss the aspects of characters in films and literature that make them lovable or despised. We’ll go through the steps of creating a fluid arc for your character that works with the plot you’ve developed. You’ll have the opportunity to share some of your work and seek critique from fellow authors while we eat some great food. In addition to all that, we’ll be offering a few exercises and writing prompts to help keep the creativity flowing. Also, you get a free Lunch out of it.

On the menu will be tacos (beef or chicken) for the meat-eaters, or if you are of a vegetarian mind, we will be offering hummus and unlimited pita. There will be water, and you’ll also have your choice of coffee or soda with infinite refills. If you would like anything else from the menu, you will need to purchase those items on your own tab. Please specify vegetarian or meat-eater when confirming payment.

TLF United encourages collaboration among writers. We will be sharing works, discussing ideas and participating in writing prompts and exercises to aid in the creative process and to assist each one of us in growing as an author while we enjoy some good food together. We aim at this being a comfortable and collaborative experience. Who knows, maybe you’ll meet your next writing partner here!
